Some say wrap this way some say wrap that way. At the end of the day it’s down to the individual parent on how they want their baby to be swaddled. As long as it’s not so tight that it restricts airways and circulation, there should be no problem.

Mon, 04 Nov 2013 20:22:27 +0000http://blog.thebump.com/?p=19424#comment-91470When I first read research on this I thought that it was just a new rule they will change in a year or two but then I started looking into it more and I actually believe it. And on top of that, I have always known my husbands hips are aligned wrong (he can’t even sit criss-crossed) and I had him ask his mom about if they swaddled him or not. She said that they swaddled him and his twin brother ALL the time and she said they “loved it because she wrapped them up so tight.” So I think my husband’s hip issues may actually be a result from being too tightly swaddled too often. I plan on avoiding swaddling after finding that out.

I would swaddle in moderation. Not too tight and not too loose. Or only swaddle when there is no other way to get baby to settle down. :)

I swaddled my first baby, I’ll do it again for the rest of my babies. I used the swaddle me blankets which are really loose around the legs anyways.
